Mineralization Intersected At George Lake Critical Metals Project

CRANBROOK, BC – Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. reported that two of the three holes planned for the 2026 diamond drilling program have been completed at the George Lake Project, northeast Saskatchewan. Both of the holes successfully intersected the George Lake Zn/Pb deposit horizon, with the deepest 2026 intersection to date approximately 208m vertically below the deepest historical intercept. Analytical results are pending for both holes. Preliminary interpretation of the 2026 drilling, along with historical results, indicates that mineralization remains open down-dip and along strike.
The 2026 drill targeting is driven by results from geophysical and technical work, paired with advanced interpretation. The holes were located to test for down dip extensions of the prospective sedimentary exhalative (sedex) stratigraphy, over a strike length of 385m. The program was conducted by TerraLogic Exploration Inc. of Cranbrook, BC under the direction of Kerry Bates, P.Geo., Exploration Manager for Eagle Plains. The drill contractor was New Age Drilling Solutions.
The George Lake deposit horizon is characterized by significant critical metal mineralization over a broad strike length of approximately 8.1 kilometers. The source of this mineralization has never been established, and forms the basis for Eagle Plains’ continuing exploration work.
